Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
PLEASE READ: DO NOT PICK THIS ALL-INCLUSIVE HOTEL 1. Check-in process was so confusing. One of the staff told us to sit at the lobby, we sat there for more than 30 mins just waiting and when we decided to approach one of the staff, they told us they forgot about us. 2. Room smelled like sewer. Not cleaned properly. 3. Very LIMITED choices for restaurants. Most of the restaurants are only open for dinner. Only 1 restaurant is open during lunch. A lot of restaurants there are not included with the all inclusive. So much for calling it all inclusive. Reservation process for their restaurant is so inconvenient. You can only do it in person 4. Very poor customer service, no amount of tip can motivate the staff there. Hotel staff act like they are doing you a favor just because they don’t see you paying a bill after the meal. 5. People who are supposed to clean the room don’t “clean” the room. Room is dirty. We tried marking the towels just so we can checked if they are replacing it and voila! They are just folding it. No amount of tips will make them feel like they should do their job properly. 6. No servers around the beach area, you always have to walk to the bar. 7. Glasses are dirty. Drinks are poorly made. No bottled beers. Sometimes i feel like their beer doesn’t even have alcohol in them. 8. Same food at the beach bar/resto. They don’t ever switch it. At one point, they serve me raw fish skewers. 9. Soda’s are at room temp. You need to get ice.

The property is nice and clean but not enough entertainment and food quality and choice is overrated. One of the restaurants was closed for renovation, but nobody notified us about it. So out of 5 restaurants basically it was only 2 options, plus Stake House is closed on Fridays.

Liked: Cleanliness
There was excellent, good and bad. Ill start with the excellent The resort itself is very clean which is a huge plus. The seaweed was also delt with expertly. Good. The food was serviceable. We had the steakhouse twice which was good, the italian place twice it was the best resturant with the most options in my opinion, blue marlin once was for dinner was also good. The pizza place was the highlight! The room we were in was in the non updated section we also had friends in the vastle section and another couple in the updated section so i saw them all. Our room was large and clean. The shower had low pressure but there was always hot water. Pool areas were well kept up. Pool bar was nice and they were quick. Beach bar was nice. The biggest downsides forthis trip were 1. We were forgotten about at check in. We sat where we were told to for 45 mins prior to us going to ask what was going on. There was no welcome drink really it was a mess so not a great start. 2. I bought several bottles of wine in addtiin to the all inclusive. This process was quite slow. It was not streamlined at all and took sometimes upwards of 30 mins to figure out what to do where to go ect. In my opinion if soneone wants to spend additional money at an all inclusive resort it should happen quickly. 3. There were several days where there were no pool towels. Then we got the they will be here in 10mins.....it was more like 2 hours. Just be honest about the timing.

Beautiful property, quiet and well kept. The staff are all very nice. Food selection could have been expanded for the size of the property, limited options for breakfast and lunch. Food quality average what you expect for such a large all inclusive property.

This is a beautiful resort with friendly staff. We will definitely be returning. The reason for 4 stars is each night it seemed like alot of restaurants were closed. One of the nights, out of the 5 restaurants - 4 of them were closed or fully booked. That kind of sucked.

This property is spectacular. The only thing I was unhappy about is their beach was a small man made beach and I didn’t think it was what we’d expect. You couldn’t see through the water so I never saw anyone enjoying it. Everything else exceeded our expectations. Food, drink quality was amazing.

Tuvimos la mejor estadía! Celebramos mi cumpleaños a todo lujo. Las instalaciones eran maravillosas, la decoración increíble, la comida y bebidas de buena calidad. Todos los empleados eran muy eficientes y amigables- destacando a Alexis en Casa Bella, Alexis en el destination bar, Olga en el Coffee Shop, Yaniris en Casa Bella, El Gato en la playa, entre otros como nuestro amistoso maletero, las chicas del gift shop y la que nos refrescaba la habitación que no recordamos el nombre pero que nos hicieron la estadía mucho más especial. La única cosa que podría ser mejor (personalmente) sería la condición y tamaño del area de la playa que no le hizo justicia a la belleza natural de Punta Cana. Estaba llena de algas, rocas y una separación que no me hizo sentir completamente en el paraíso en donde estábamos. Apartando eso, es totalmente recomendable por su precio! Con su buena vibra y buen servicio, nos hicieron sentir súper cómodas y apreciadas. Gracias por todo!
